Talking WOOT! 421 miles to 1 tank of 91 octane



sorry i havent been getting that great of a gas mileage in my car lately. BUT even with the egr valve stuck just got 421 miles to the tank and i just filled up 16.5 gallons. not to shabby for a 155k mile vehicle.

drove from colorado springs to denver
denver back to colorado springs
3 trips from my apt to my new house(12 miles each way)
and then a trip from colorado springs to boulder and back.

Cool

25mpg is great if it's consistant. Fix the EGR valve!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe clean the intake & combustion chamber. Inflate the tires to the European spec of 38psi. Get that bad boy up to 27-28 on the highway!
